The Choice

John Orr Franklin


I was lost upon a sea
For what seemed eternity
As I tried to find my way
I knew there’d come a day
I’d see your eyes
And hear your cries

Just take a stand
And fight for your
Belief in who you are

A guiding light at bay
Or did my eyes betray
A siren song that screamed
I slipped into a dream
I see your eyes
And hear your cries

Just take a stand
And find your way
Just believe in who you are

And now I’ve seen
Those chains break free
And now I see
What’s between you and me
Life in the thrill of the choice

The time to decide
It cannot be denied
With all the will it takes
I pray this soul won’t break
I see your eyes I hear your cries

Just take a stand
And find your way
Just believe in who you are

And now I’ve seen
Those chains break free
And now I see
What’s between you and me
Life in the thrill of the choice
